Liposuction

Grossman Medical is the Best of All Los Angeles Liposuction Centers

Liposuction is a cosmetic medical procedure that removes the stubborn fat that you can’t seem to lose from diet and exercise alone. A plastic surgeon generally performs liposuction on the belly, hips, buttocks, thighs, arms, face, or under the chin to improve the patient’s shape and to garner a more youthful, healthier look. When people in LA search for “doctors who do liposuction near me”, they are often met with options that include some of the best Los Angeles liposuction centers and plastic surgeons, but knowing how to identify the best liposuction surgeon in Los Angeles County can be very challenging. Discover why Dr. Peter Grossman is the best liposuction surgeon and learn how he can help you achieve all your beauty goals by giving you a perfectly sculpted body.

Am I a Good Candidate for Liposuction?

Every patient seeking liposuction needs to have realistic expectations, and if the person is a good candidate to get liposuction, they will likely have their desired results when working with Grossman Medical.

Even if you eat well and exercise regularly, you may be one of many people who simply can’t shed certain body fat areas. For these people, a body-sculpting system used by acclaimed plastic surgeon Dr. Peter H. Grossman can skillfully reshape your curves.

First, you need to be in good enough health to undergo liposuction. This means the ideal candidate will be within 30% of their target weight, have firm elastic skin, and doesn’t smoke. You should also be free from health problems that include diabetes, heart disease, weakened immune system, or problems with blood flow. When you have your liposuction consultation with Dr. Grossman, he will review your medical history, give you an exam, and ensure you are a great candidate for the procedure.

If you’re ready to permanently remove those stubborn pockets of fat from your neck, jawline, arms, breasts, abdomen, buttocks, thighs, and knees, make an appointment at Grossman Plastic Surgery in West Hills, California today. Give us a call or use our convenient online scheduling service.

 

What do I need to Know Before Going in for a Liposuction Consultation?

Be sure to go into your liposuction consultation with a clearly defined set of expectations. This will enable your doctor to create a realistic plan. You will want to talk about how you imagine your body shape after the procedure, what your target weight should be, and how you think liposuction will improve your life. You should also create a set of questions to ask your liposuction surgeon and be prepared to get some instructions on how to prepare for the surgery. For example, you may be asked to lose a certain amount of weight before the surgery, or abstain from alcohol, or you may be asked to take a certain medication or use some skincare products. These instructions vary from patient to patient.

How is Liposuction Performed?

Liposuction is a relatively short procedure lasting between one and two hours on average and is performed while a patient is under anesthesia. Diluted local anesthesia is introduced to decrease any trauma and bleeding. Then, a cannula or thin hollowed-out tube is inserted through an incision to loosen up excess fat while the liposuction surgeon uses a controlled back-and-forth motion. As the fat becomes dislodged it is suctioned out of the body through a specialized surgical vacuum attached to the cannula.

 

Is Liposuction Painful?

Liposuction is not known to be a painful procedure to go through. First, Grossman Medical performs liposuction under anesthesia, so you won’t feel any pain during the procedure. After liposuction you will likely feel some discomfort, but if you follow the post-procedure care instructions, you shouldn’t be in any pain. Most patients report discomfort two or three days after the procedure, and with the right medications for pain management, coupled with following the discharge instructions, you should be free from pain.

 

How Long Does It Take to Recover from Liposuction?

Recovery time after liposuction varies per patient and per area of treatment. Liposuction typically causes bruising and swelling that can take several weeks to resolve. We typically expect a two to four week recovery period before you can return to non-strenuous activities and four-to-six-weeks for heavy lifting and exercise.

Depending upon the area being treated, Dr. Grossman may recommend use of compression garments afterward for comfort and to promote faster healing. Also expect to see Dr. Grossman for a follow-up visit within a week of the procedure so he can monitor your progress.

 

From Butt Liposuction to Submental Liposuction, There Are Several Types Available

If your beauty goal involves a full head-to-toe body makeover, then you will likely need liposuction performed in multiple areas. Butt liposuction is one of the most common procedures performed at Grossman Medical, and for people who have jowls of fatty tissue in the neck, submental liposuction is a very quick and easy way to tighten up the neck and shave 20 years off your appearance. When you have your consultation at Grossman Medical, be sure to communicate your beauty goals, and Dr. Grossman will present the necessary types of liposuctions required to give you your dream look.

 

Will I Need to Stay in the Hospital After Liposuction?

When you book your liposuction procedure with Grossman Medical, it is performed in our outpatient surgery center, so hospitalization is not required. This means the patient can return home on the same day as the procedure. You will want to have a family member or friend with you for the next few days to perform basic household tasks while you stay rested while performing little to no activity.
